    These combined troops were sent to Russia after WWI to stop Bolshevik Revolution.
  • Iain said:
    Looks like Russians in the front rank, followed by Japanese or Chinese and Americans, followed by British and presumably, Chinese or Japanese, with more Russians looking on from the back. Date of circa 1915 must be wrong as the Russian Empire was still going strong at that point. Allied intervention in Siberia against the Bolsheviks didn't begin until 1918 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siberian_Intervention).
  • Alfredo Grados Rivero said:
    Russians in the front row were the soldiers either the Mensheviks or to any form of an anti socialist fraction.
  • Art Siegel said:
    Iain The dates represent a generic date range which presumablywill be updated following research.

    Church of the Intercession of the Theotokos (Church of the Intercession of the Mother of God) in Vladivostok. Like so many Russian churches, it would be seized by those aligned with the Bolsheviks, ultimately to be closed and dynamited by the Communists (who also seized the land and adjacent cemetery). Surely to add insult to injury, a monument to Lenin was built on the foundation of the demolished church. In 1991, the land was returned to the Orthodox Church and construction of a new church at the site was completed in 2007.
